Not that far, a couple of hours easy. Normally.
However there is only a narrow bridge a couple of klms long to get onto the Island and another narrow 10klms road from there to the track is always a long bumper to bumper traffic jam . Traffic is not smooth flowing and delays certainly leaving the Island after will be horrific. So yeah double the normal time as all the peripheral roads leading to PI also clog up. Not so bad with say 20,000 people for the Historic meet compared to many times more for the MotoGP

Helicopter is the way for the chosen few to travel!

Not for me though I shall watch from my comfy recliner with a bottle of red!

The rumours have been doing the rounds for a while but finally confirmed over the weekend was the split of Repsol and Honda after 3 decades together. Also championships with Mick Doohan, Alex Criville, Valentino Rossi, Nicky Hayden, Casey Stoner and Marc Marquez.

Repsol say they intend to continue their links to motorsport in terms of "...continuing to develop products and services of the highest quality.”

Does that mean we should expect to see Repsol stickers on another manufacturer / team?

And what about TotalEnergies to replace Repsol? With Peugeot they are used to join losers teams… Less seriously, if possible, it was talked about Petronas to join the filed.

Penalties for tyre pressure and track limits will play a role during the main race. F1 style.

Interesting result… A lot of improvement in Martin's body language… Pecco forgives Michelin… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ok8gxufT1H4

"Schummy style" classification:
J Martin 341 pts
F Bagnaia 317 pts
E Bastianini 282 pts
M Marquez 281 pts.
It seems the long lasting honey moon of Ducati and Pramac is dead and buried now, Martin didn't look very happy on the podium during the 100th victory celebration. Maybe he should keep his mouth tight for a while…

This fight for the riders' championship would go down to the wire.

Well it looks like we might now only have two contenders for the MotGP Crown given the DNFs for MM93 and Bastianini. Great ride from Acosta too.

Still a chance we will not see the #1 on a Ducati next year.

Yes, Acosta coming back on front is great and the two French riders entering the top 10 is good news. But maybe it's going too far to think that Japanese teams are sorted now.
# Guthrie: agreed!!

If neither Honda or Yamaha don’t score a MotoGP victory this year (as seems likely) it will be the first time in more than half a century that Japanese manufacturers have not achieved a single win.

Just sayin'

Swan song for what could be called two lame ducks. When you think they have now a special allowance to test and develop! Incredible.

Yep! My 10pcs, Pecco and Marc. I wonder if they have a "gasoline alley" in Australia, could be interesting for a monster refuel…
